Price of Oil Plummets

Black gold’s descent in untamed flight,
As mighty dollar claims its might.
Middle East’s fears no longer ignite,
In currency’s sway, cuts fly out of sight.

Demand ebbs, markets quiver and shake,
Anxious traders yearn for the break.
Speculation stifles, oil prices quake,
Words spoken hold no weight in quake.

Fractures deepen, bonds fall apart,
Geopolitical tensions lose their spark.
Strong dollar’s allure pierces the heart,
Hope fades as black stains leave their mark.

Uncertain horizon, oil’s downward chart,
Trading floors sad, profits and dreams depart.
World’s dependence held by a thread so fine,
Oil’s decline leaves us wondering, divine?
